            Here is Frosted Vintage Ruffles reblooming. It is more semi-evergreen here than dormant: Frosted Vintage Ruffles.JPG

            What you don't see is the seed harvest going on. Yesterday I collected 11 pods that were cracking open. They are mostly applique throats, and 1 I hope will be a double with the throat. I use an egg carton that is made of pressed paper. That helps draw the excess moisture out. I need to put everything in bags before this evening when there should be some more ready:yes:

              'Frosted Vintage Ruffles' is a beauty Wylie I always confuse that one with 'Beautiful Edgings' :scratch:, must be related.
              Great idea with the egg carton :dbgrtmb: I'll remember that one, although quite a lot of my seed pods have shrivelled and fallen off still some left but not many,although there are lots of unknown crosses that are doing brilliantly :heehee:
              'Chili Spice' looking good today.

              And this one just keeps going and going 'Alien Encounter' I've been told this one throws out double patterned seedlings Wylie and its an evergreen ;) sounds interesting, think it has a pod not one I've crossed but maybe worth growing the seeds on just to see, thats if it doesn't shrivel and fall off :thud:

                Beautiful Edgings is the pod parent for Frosted Vintage Ruffles :biggrin: FVR was the second bonus plant I got (Eights Miles High was the first, and it has 2 nice, fat pods on it were I crossed it with one of my Amethyst Reflections sdlgs.;)) You could say it is the opposite of Alien Encounter [eye-no-edge / edge-no-eye]. I just put in the refrigerator today 10 seeds of Geneva Top Notch x Golden Tentacles, hoping to put an edge on it. I also put away 14 seeds of Squirrel Beater x Womanizer, playing with the eye pattern. (I'm up to 75 bags of seeds}.
                I would cross Alien Encounter with something like Julie Newmar or Destined to see:stirpot:

                        75 bags Wylie!!!!! :hate-shocked:you could set up your own seed business the price some of those seeds go for on the lily auction :thud:.
                        Looking forward to seeing 'Before Botox' now what will you do with that one ?
                        'Julie Newmar' and 'Destined to See' have both finished blooming now, another missed opportunity till next year :gaah:.
                        There is a bit of rebloom here on 'Outrageous', 'Applique', 'Apple Swirl', 'Hemstitched' and 'Green Mystique' so far, so its not all over yet :hapydancsmil:

                          I'm trying to wind things down, but there are still a few crosses I cann't help trying - that Don Herrell to too good not to do something with it. Maybe tomorrow or the next day for Before Botox:spinning:

                            :wow: looks like your seasons far from over Wylie, lovely pictures!!!!!
                            Well I managed to identify all my divisions on the allotment but the other 'Star of Fantasy' cross didn't appear :scratch:, then today I walked the long way to the allotment passed my old half allotment and there it was!!! must have missed it when I moved them all,obviously a dormant :thud:, just saw the remains of the final flower that must've opened yesterday its had 4 scapes by the looks of it and looks a lighter purple than the other one with a slightly patterned eye resembling 'Star of Fantasy' more this time,anyway I dug it up and moved it so hopefully see the flowers next year :wallbanging:.
